Starfield is widely regarded as the biggest Xbox release this year. And for everything the game offers players, the one feature players have invested countless hours in is ship building.

Starfield allows players to customize their ships, and characters as they wish. This brought forth many iconic characters and ships from other franchises. Players have built ships that look like Thomas the Tank Engine, Batwing, Millenium Falcon and more. And the latest one to enter Bethesda’s Starfield is Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon.
